organisms that use energy from sunlight or from chemical bonds in inorganic substances to make organic compounds

converts light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds, primarly carbohydrates

animals and other organisms that must get energy from good unstead of directly from sunlight or inorganic substances

light energy (absorbed from the sun) is converted to chemical energy, which is temporarily stored in ATP and the energy carrier molecule NADPH.

Organic compounds are formed using CO2 nad the chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH

organelles found in the cells of plants and algae; surrounded by a pair of membranes

inside the inner membrane of chloroplasts and are arranged as flattened sacs

compounds found in the thylakoid membrane including yellow, orange, and brown

primary electron acceptor

the acceptor of the electrons lost from chlorophyll a is a moolecule in the thylakoid membrane

electron transport chain

the promary electron acceptor donates the electrons to the first of a series of molecules located in the thylakoid memrbane. These molecules are called ________.

the process through light reacts is the synthesis of ATP

the incorporation of CO2 into organic molecules

photosynthesis	converts light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds, primarly carbohydrates
heterotrophs	animals and other organisms that must get energy from good unstead of directly from sunlight or inorganic substances
light reactions	light energy (absorbed from the sun) is converted to chemical energy, which is temporarily stored in ATP and the energy carrier molecule NADPH.
Calvin Cycle	Organic compounds are formed using CO2 nad the chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH
chloroplasts	organelles found in the cells of plants and algae; surrounded by a pair of membranes
